    They do often end up pretty hard at the throat, working the splice after burry in your hands helps alot, a 16 gauge needles for standard climbing lines works well and a good amount of overburry of the crossover as well.

    Whipping at the throat was something I learnt off a very good friend and long time splicer Dan Dass, there are a few reasons for it but as for technique, it can be difficult but choosing a sweet spot gauge of needle and working the splice in your hands a bit go a long way. After doing it for a...

    Tapering the jacket a couple strands shortly after the eye mark by a few strands is what cousin do from what i can tell to have the 300mm section a bit thinner. 4 strands shortly after the eye and 8 strands at the main taper.

    ok, please forgive my lazy ass for not posting revised instructions for ages. This isn't exactly how they do it, I've changed how the tapers are done to give a better result but this is how i get 'er done now days This is for atrax ropes and similar constructions only, other 24 strand lines...

    Cut it down to about 2" then tapering it and burrying it. Cheers :)
